You helped me run even splits in the Newport 10k with your videos and info, Mr. Scullion. Feels so amazing to say that! I focused on my form from the start and tried to be relaxed, it paid dividends towards the end. My race efforts have become more assured in the last few months since I watch this channel, and PB for 5k, 10k, half marathon and marathon all in the last 6 weeks. 🏁

Hola from Mexico Steven. Thank you for this brilliant video, at the age of 59 I am finally learning how to run properly, and I am currently transitioning from being a runner who used to shuffle along, to being someone who resembles an actually runner. So thanks again for your help in all of these areas, its gold.

These are so well explained and demonstrated. "There's never a perfect time" and "It's a sum of all the parts" are ideas I will keep with me. Thank you, Stephen!

i was just looking at running technique the other day. Came across another video about 'lazy running' with all the bad techniques ie the leg lagging behind like a trot, arms flailing, head tilted back, and thought to myself, "Oh no. that's me!"

Got a lot of work to do. Thanks for all the videos!!

I really don’t know how ok or bad my technique is. But I know it can be improved. Especially my knee lift/drive. I’m just back from Boston and ran 2:57:44. Last year was 3:02:59. Felt a lot stronger on the hills this year. 6 months now to New York. Elites just make technique look easy and effortless.

A wealth of knowledge and experience. All summarised in an articulate manner. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻

Thanks for sharing Scully. Dynamic stretches & mobility movements prior to training/running & static stretching afterwards have changed my whole journey as an athlete. It helps prevent injuries big time!!! I watch people get injured a lot and I ask them: "Do you stretch your muscles before & after workouts?", and the answer is always no, or I do it from time to time, or not so often.

A strong, mobile & flexible muscle is a runners best friend. It has helped me increase in speed while my strides were much less than other runners, allowing me to conserve energy and have more range in my Marathons.

Scully's techniques are amazing!!!! Do as he says while listening to your body as well, and journal everything!!!!

The only way to see improvements is to have a record of it somewhere that you can go back to. It adds a fire in you like never before

Watching this made me realize how my martial arts training prepared me to be a fast runner because many of the moves I trained mimicked all these exercises or their purpose

Excelente! Great job and fantastic complement to my workout. Thank you for being here.

I've found Paul MacKinnon of The Balanced Runner really helpful for offering advice on how to improve. He starts with focusing on upper body position before moving down to the legs and thinking how your arm swing and leg swing relate to each other. A helpful tip is to practice new way/old way where you run for ~50m in the new way, and then ~50m in the old way so you can feel the difference and figure out if it's helping or not.

[amymarie]

Thank you for your tips. I’m running my first 100m trail in a few months and boyyy am I tight from all the running / climbing.

[wartupper]

Your videos are amazing. Is it possible to talk about injuries and recovery? At college I was a 10K, Half-marathon runner, but life happened and gained a ton of weight, then tore right knee's medial meniscus. I would love to run again soon.

Currently 7 days since I last ran due to a niggle that I foolishly tried to run through out of being stubborn. For me it’s the same injuries repeating themselves over and over again and seems to be related to week glutes and hips. I had my gate analyzed on a treadmill and my left leg lands inwards at an angle due to the muscle imbalance. Doing a bunch of these strengthening exercises while I rest and I will definitely add all of these in also. I’m realizing now that I will never get anywhere near my running goals unless I put a lot of time in to this stuff. Thanks for the awesome tips and always Stephen!!

[elclaudiosanchez]

[OaxSport]

Awesome video, Stephen! Great tips on improving running technique and preventing injuries. Thanks for sharing your expertise! #RunningForm #InjuryPrevention

[HS]

Thank you, my left leg or left side is the weaker, making my right leg work harder. During long runs, I get the pain in my left knee ( lazy leg)and hot spot bottom of my right foot. I am working on left leg to work as much as right leg.

Nursing an injured right hamstring at the moment taking notes 😮 (I have weak glutes I now from the flicking of soles on the inside of my calves).
